Hosted by Teen Health Mississippi and our valued partners, the Summit provides young people with a unique opportunity to raise awareness of critical issues affecting youth in their communities. The event will be held from June 12-14, 2026, at the Mississippi School of Arts in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and includes an overnight stay on campus.

At the Summit, young leaders will collaborate with fellow youth advocates, local and state leaders, entrepreneurs, policy experts, and social activists to identify strategies for driving positive change in their communities.
